DNA Binding and Modulation of Gene Expression by the Latency-Associated Nuclear Antigen of Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus
1 Sept 2001
Abstract excerpt
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is associated with Kaposi's sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma, and multicentric Castleman's disease. The latency-associated nuclear antigen (LANA) is highly expressed in these malignancies and has been shown to play an important role in episomal maintenance, presumably by binding to a putative oriP. In addition, LANA modulates cellular and viral gene expression and...
